I’m replacing my Atwood level legs with HWH jacks. I’ve talked to Atwood and they have service centers with trained techs that can install the new system. Basically uses same wiring and adds some , but everything else is new and different
Manager of one service center told me they could change mine (can’t remember the amount of the high cost he quoted me) I asked if he could install new HWH and if so about how much. He said about a $1000 more than Atwood’s. I ask his opinion are they worth a thousand dollars more. His answer “definitely”. Anyway, I plan on getting replacement leveling system from HWH and it ain’t cheap but I think they are just about “bullet proof”.
The difference between the "old" Atwood and New Atwood is, the old jacks just had 2 wires going to each jack for the motor. The New Jacks have 4 wires. 2 for the motor and 2 for the sensor on the jack as the OLD jacks did not have the sensor. So, that means you have to install 4 new jacks and the wire Harness and then a new control board and touchpad. The New Jacks bolt direct to the old Jack mounts, so that keeps the labor cost down.
